Selective Enrichment of Salmonella from Foods: Enriches Salmonella from meat, poultry, eggs, dairy, and produce using malachite green (36 µg/mL) and high MgCl2 (1.34%) for selectivity.

Environmental Monitoring: Detects Salmonella in swabs and rinses from food processing environments and equipment surfaces.

Water and Beverage Testing: Enriches low-level Salmonella from potable, process, and surface waters, juices, and other beverages.

Pharmacopeial/Compendial Testing: Used in USP/EP/JP specified organism testing workflows for Salmonella after non-selective pre-enrichment.

Regulatory and Standard Methods: Applied in ISO 6579, FDA BAM, USDA/FSIS, and AOAC workflows for Salmonella detection.

MPN and Quantitative Enrichment: Supports Most Probable Number schemes to estimate Salmonella levels in complex samples.

Suppression of Competing Flora: Inhibits background organisms (e.g., Proteus, coliforms) via malachite green and elevated salts (NaCl 0.72%, MgCl2 1.34%).

Pre-Plating Enrichment: Enrichment prior to isolation on selective agars (e.g., XLD, HE, BS) to recover stressed Salmonella cells.

Pre-PCR/Immunoassay Preparation: Generates enriched cultures to improve sensitivity of molecular assays and immunoassays targeting Salmonella.

Animal Feed and Ingredients Testing: Enrichment of Salmonella from feed, pet food, and raw ingredients with high selectivity from the RVS formulation.
